Parisian Market Earrings

Paris is awash with open air and sometimes indoor markets. I love shopping there because there's always a sense of expectation - you never know what bargains are around the corner. In January I bought some pretty little earrings at the bargain price of only 3 Euro each. The pastel colours will be perfect for the summer so I'm saving them until the weather improves!

Beaded hoop earrings with multi-coloured beads that have a grainy, matt finish. 

These are my absolute favourites. Exquisite little plastic roses in a subtle turquoise and  pale pink.

Medium sized plastic turquoise beads with subtle gold marbling effect. 
I already have a large jewellery collection but with pieces like these available at such low prices, I think it will grow rapidly.

These items were all bought at a twice weekly, open-air market in the Parisian suburb of Goussainville.

Well, it's been a while.

I thought I'd drop you a line to let you know that I'm still around! For personal reasons I took a short break from the blogosphere but fear not, I'm planning a triumphant return with all things stylish yet modest!

New posts are in the pipeline and I have some lovely Parisian market finds to show you.
